My advice is;
No shows are likely to be...
1. Same day and particularly same hour phone bookers
2. AW users with no feedback
3. Ask too many questions at time of booking
4. Sound young and nervous on the phone
5. Start haggling on price or request things you say you don't do
6. Have obviously not read your profile
7. Don't ask obvious questions about your location (wait for them to ask for directions... never offer up front). I once had a booking from a guy I was dead cert would be a no show - he never asked for directionsetc
I have many many reliable same day bookers, the problems I mainly have is those requesting
less than an hour's notice and I have effectively cut those out.
AW users with no feedback are often fine
so long as they are polite, clean and respectful which is what I ask of all my guys.
Sounding nervous is not a crime, or being young, that being said I only see over 25s.
I agree with the rest of your list!
Reliable ones will...
1. Book well in advance and confirm/follow your coms instructions (so make sure you ask them to text on morning of appointment or 1 hour before if same day booking
2. Have lots of positive AW feedback
3. Book on AW (only reliable if they have more than 5 or 6 feedbacks) - unreliable for those with zero feedback
4. Know that you have their number
5. Ask obvious questions about location and parking etc
As well as very short notice, I find that those who book too far in advance are far more likely to cancel and not show.
AW feedback must be taken with a large sack of salt. Means nothing to me, I have seen great guys with 0 FB and awful guys with tons of it, and vice versa. I also see many many guys outside of the AW system so I have to use my instinct, so long as they follow my booking procedure, fine.
Same with booking on AW means nothing, most of my guys from AW don't and most are lovely and respectful.
Agree with most of the rest!
